I've been switching back and forth - not yet having ability to access member of list/smart list for filters or Event/Email programs at the program level means that you can't really wholly move to Sky as a team until you have all the filters and program types in the system. That said, I love Labels and the Saved Filters, it's just a little more of a Beta than I feel comfortable with activating beyond our power users.

I echo what Darrell and Oliver stated. I've been bouncing back and forth. I like some of the efficiency gains. I feel like processing is faster but I don't feel that the UX is any faster if that makes sense. It find myself reverting back to the classic experience more often than not b/c I don't like the two experiences.

I turned on Sky this morning. Overall, the new UI is really polished and easier to navigate. It's clearly Beta, but I'm really excited to see how everything pans out! Here is a list of Known Issues and Pending Features.

Am I the only one that is really not a fan of the color scheme? I don't love the white-text-on-dark-purple - feels hard to read...and also all of the icons being basically the same white and cream colors make distinguishing between different objects pretty difficult at a glance (ie it'd be nice if folders vs archived folders looked more distinct from each other, as well as programs vs smart campaign coloring).

I agree that the UI feels faster, but for me, the UX, based on some of the design/color scheme choices, still feels awkward/uncomfortable...

I have written a detailed blog on all new features, comparison and the efficient use of Marketo Sky, in which I have also depicted the details with screenshots. Here is the link to my blog - Marketo Sky - New Features, Comparison and efficient use . Hope this helps . Please feel free to share your feedback and any additional perspectives that you might have.

Still too buggy to use in a production environment. We're noticing several of our existing programs missing constraints, values, tokens, etc. For example, here's a subset of flow steps from an existing smart campaign:

When accessing this in Sky, some of the fields contain no values (this is consistent across all of our programs/smart campaigns):

In many of our smart campaigns, many of the tokens are simply not there.

A couple other quick observations:

When typing in the token type (e.g., {{my., {{system., {{lead.), Marketo doesn't provide a listing of available token values. You have to know the full token value before entering it in the field

When clicking the "trash" icon, there's no confirmation to see if you really want to delete. It just goes away.

I've noticed the same thing Dan calls out - about the missing information. But I do use Skye occasionally for the saved filter set capability. I just select the saved filter set and then go back to the regular UI to continue.

I've tried it a few times after they released the beta this summer, but it was too buggy to be productive, then I recently tried again after they launched it with the latest release, but I'm finding there's still a lot of features that are still "Not yet available in Sky." So I'm going to wait it out a little longer before diving fully into it.
